Chapter 389: Quid pro quo
Ling Xi shouted as the dark elves behind him formed a formation.
Now that the Quartet Stone Pillar has been seriously damaged, it is really difficult for him to run such a huge magic array again, and he can only gather the strength of all the clans.
Streams of purple energy were handed out from the hands of the dark elves behind him and injected into Ling Xi's body, the violet magic robe at Ling Xi's feet floated slightly, his hands leaned forward, and a large magic array was reformed in front of him, emitting blue light, and one after another profound runes were rearranged and combined, covering the magic array, trying to connect the only remaining stone pillar power in the four seas.
"Lord Dark Elf King, we are willing to give you our strength. Ah Duo said, his arms opened forward, and the energy in his body floated out from the spread palm, fluttering in the air to form a ribbon of light, converging in Ling Xi's palm.
Blue stood beside Ah Duo, his sword and armor already stained with blood, his eyes more resolute, and the battle sharpened him into a qualified warrior.
He also stretched out his hand in front of him, and wisps of lilac power fell on Ling Xi's body.
The clansmen all gathered behind Ling Xi, standing silently, their hands raised upward, the energy was like streams converging into rivers, and the rivers converged into the sea, spreading over people's heads, like a galaxy, and finally they were all absorbed and transformed by Ling Xi, and injected into the Zheng of the magic array
Ling Feng looked down at his hands, knowing that he was not a physique for cultivating magic, and felt deeply guilty.
At this time, they are in the rear of the battlefield, and as long as the enemy does not kill here, they are safe. Glancing at the battlefield, Ling Feng drew the sword at his waist and said in a voice as loud as a bell:
"All warriors who can't use mana, follow me!"
A Dark Elf warrior wearing armor and holding a weapon approached.
Ling Feng looked at the Dark Elf King with reverence, and at this time, the latter's mind completely sank into the magic array, standing like a statue.
"Lord Dark Elf King, we are warriors who rely on physical strength to fight, and we don't have that much mana. I'll take a team to the front to protect you, and I won't let any enemy approach here!"
Ling Feng saluted respectfully and led the team to the front.
The faint blue light reflected on Ling Xi's face, his face was as pale as paper, his appearance was young and handsome, but it revealed the calm of reading all the vicissitudes of life. The scene of the first acquaintance with Yifeng many years ago comes to mind.
One afternoon, Ling Xi sat behind the simple but tidy bar, and the bar was deserted.
Several Imperial soldiers walked in and distributed wanted notices, Ling Xi glanced at it, and in a thick stack of papers, there was a portrait of Yi Feng.
"There is no bar in the Holy City that would post such a wanted post. He said, "Do you think that because I'm a newly opened bar, I don't understand the rules here? If you want to gain a foothold in the Holy City, the face of the Red Flame City Lord still has to be given." ”
The Imperial Army slapped the wanted notice on the table anyway:
"The order issued by the Imperial City must be posted!"
"Hmph. Ling Xi threw the wanted warrant in the faces of several soldiers: "Didn't you hear me take it, get out!"
"You ——"
The faces of several imperial soldiers were ugly, but after all, it was the territory of the Holy City, and it was not easy to attack, so they had to hold back their anger and leave angrily.
Almost at this time of year, these soldiers who were issued bounty warrants would be in the Holy City.
"Yi Feng is the son of the Red Flame City Lord, and he dares to issue a wanted warrant for Yi Feng in the Holy City, what do these people think. ”
Here, the enemy of the city lord is all the enemies of Rao, this is the consensus of every resident of the Holy City.
As soon as the Imperial Army walked out of the bar, the wind chimes on the door rang again. A man wrapped in a black robe walked in, went straight to the bar, sat down on a high stool, and ordered a glass of wine.
"Even if you want to give the Chiyan City Lord this face, you don't need to offend the people of the empire. ”
The man's voice was low and he said coldly.
"Driving away a few lackeys from the Pantheon is purely convenient, not helping the city lord. Ling Xi hid a knife in his smile, but he didn't care about the origin of the black-clothed Rao.
After taking a sip of wine, the man in black opened his mouth to chat.
"This boss, not long after arriving in the Holy City?"
Ling Xi sat at the back of the bar, looking at the guest, but he was not guarded.
There are many adventurers of all kinds coming and going in the tavern, and there are all kinds of strange people, so I get used to it.
What's more, this guest Rao can't feel a trace of the breath of a strong man. Maybe he deliberately restrained his mana, or maybe he didn't have mana in the first place.
"yes. Ling Xi smiled, her tone nonchalant.
The black-robed man spoke slowly again, and his voice was thick:
"I heard that this bar is still a venue for exchanging information. I don't know how much the boss is willing to bid for this piece of information?"
He raised his dark eyes and looked directly at Ling Xi from under his hood.
"Oh, then you can see. Ling Xi lazily responded casually, and didn't care. He hadn't seen any kind of information, and ordinary news couldn't get into his eyes at all. But he still politely added:
"As long as it's worth it, I'll pay it accordingly. ”
It's just that he didn't know that Yi Feng already knew everything about Ling Xi before he came here.
So Yifeng confidently stretched out three fingers and said three key words in turn:
"Institute, white scorpion, dark elf. ”
Ling Xi was stunned, and her voice almost trembled:
"You again?"
Yifeng not only knows why he came to the Holy City, but also knows his true identity: the Dark Elf King. I also know that Ling Xi has been collecting intelligence everywhere all these years in order to find the missing apprentice Lingyu.
Yifeng smiled slightly, knowing that he had already taken the bait. Indifferently:
"I think you should understand what I mean. So may I ask the boss, what do you want to exchange for this piece of information?"
"Do you know where the rain falls?!"
Ling Xi couldn't care less about being reserved as a Dark Elf King, so he stood up and shouted.
As long as it is related to this apprentice of his, he will get it at all costs.
But soon, he calmed down, and a trace of vigilance rose in his heart. I carefully looked at the black-robed man from top to bottom again, but I couldn't guess his details.
"You...... Who is it?"
"Boss don't have to be nervous, I'm just a guy who comes to sell intelligence. Yifeng replied.
This Rao identity must not be simple. Moreover, he should have guessed that he was the Dark Elf King.
Ling Xi was even prepared, if this person did not find out the whereabouts of Lingyu, or if he had any plans, he would suppress it by force and be prepared to snatch the information.
On the contrary, as long as the quid pro quo he proposed was within Ling Xi's ability, even if it was extremely harsh, Ling Xi would definitely do whatever it took to do so.
Because Lingyu is his only apprentice, he is the person he cares about the most, just like a relative.
